Default How to install Harland Sharp 1.7's?

I tried a search but could not find an exact answer.

Do I install them just like the stockers and tq to 22ft/lbs?

Thanks.

Yeah, just take the aluminum guides out from under the stock rockers and use the supplied pedestals and do the same sequence as factory. When I did mine, I found an aluminum sliver sticking out of one of my new HS rockers. Went through all of them carefully looking and found three more pieces. I pulled them out with a pair of tweezers. One of them was almost an inch long! I know it was'nt in your question; but I wanted to give you a heads up as to not do any internal damage. Good luck!

make sure the rear of the rocker (pushrod end) doesn't touch the inside lip of the valve cover gasket surface. mine did just slightly. had to take a file and remove a VERY small amount.

mine went in very easy
